From 18d1425127e5712dda888bb280d5d1a038a45c7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aurelien Jarno Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2013 11:16:16 +0100 Subject: locale: don't crash if locale-archive contains all zeros In case of power failure followed by filesystem issues locale-archive can end-up containing all zeros. In that case all calls to setlocale() generate a SIGFPE. This renders a system with a default non-C locale unbootable. Avoid this by ignoring the locale instead of generating a SIGFPE. --- locale/loadarchive.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'locale') diff --git a/locale/loadarchive.c b/locale/loadarchive.c index 70136dcf95..f723780ce1 100644 --- a/locale/loadarchive.c +++ b/locale/loadarchive.c @@ -274,6 +274,10 @@ _nl_load_locale_from_archive (int category, const char **namep) namehashtab = (struct namehashent *) ((char *) head + head->namehash_offset); + /* Avoid division by 0 if the file is corrupted. */ + if (__glibc_unlikely (head->namehash_size == 0)) + goto close_and_out; + idx = hval % head->namehash_size; incr = 1 + hval % (head->namehash_size - 2); -- cgit v1.2.1
